The girls outdoor track team starts practicing for their spring season next Wednesday, Mar. 2. Many of the returning track athletes are looking forward to improving this season. Along with a bunch of returning athletes, there are also new runners that are starting their first year of high school track.

Sophomore Abby Vance is a returning athlete to the girl’s track team. Vance will be running some of the shorter long distance track events.

“[I’m looking forward] to definitely improving my time and hopefully not hurting my leg. I’ll be doing the 400 and hopefully the 4 x 4 if I can make it.” Vance said.

Sophomore Anna Campillo is also a returning athlete. 

“I’m looking forward to improving my time and self throughout the season,” Campillo said. “I would be doing the mile and maybe the 1000 [meter race].” 

Eleanor Carter is also a returning member of the team. Carter hopes to also run two different events during the season.

“[I’m looking forward] to the teammates probably. They are all a lot of the same as cross country and indoor track, so I’m really looking forward to that. I’m looking forward to doing the 1000 or the two mile, I haven’t tried the two mile yet so that should be fun,” Carter said.
